You can do motors like you describe by setting the controller to:
0.5-slider('motor')

cool
are there other commands you can write there?

Yes. Lots.

Try this with a servo to make it oscillate.
Math.sin(frame/10.0)/3.0

Or this to make it move once per second:
Time.now.sec*(1/60.0)

klaufi

what are these commands and where can i find out more about them excited
or are you writing something about them soon?

sketchyman

I am changing it a little bit but when I am done I will write something up.

Basically Controller can be a little fragment of Ruby. So you can type in any legal ruby syntax that results in a number:

2+2
3*(15/2.0)
3.14*Math.sin(1.0)

You can even put stuff like

if frame<30 then 0.0 else 1.0 end

That will cause a joint to move to 1.0 after 30 frames.

-Sorry about the error on SU7. I have seen one other person have this problem but I dont know what causes it or how to fix it yet. If you manage to figure it out please let me know!

-Final version will be released when it is done. No specific date.

-See the magnets thread for instructions on the magnet. If you are still having problems post a description of the problem (and a model if possible) in that thread.

I saw a video of SketchyPhysics 3 showing a piston linked to a normal cylinder. When activate the corrispondent slider, the cylinder seems to multiply.Is that possible in the current version?

That feature isn't in yet. I have to figure out how to make it work with replay.

Sketchyman, could you try this to fix your SU7 error. Find the file win32api.so in your ...Sketchup 7\plugins\SketchyPhysics3 folder and copy it to just ...\plugins\ and see if that fixes the problem.

Nope, sorry.

Sorry if this has been asked before (noob here) but I noticed v2 was mentioned as having Mac support at some undefined time in the future. Will this be implemented in v3?

Cheers

I made this things You told me, but it doesnt even help. I tried to move it out completely, or give the file to both- sketchyphysics and plugin folder, and i also tried to leave it in just plugin folder, but nothing helps. I am sorry i couldnt help You.

Sorry, I am at a loss. I will keep looking for a solution. Let me know if you figure anything out.
